Saturday we didn't have too much going on during the day. Owen had one hour of soccer, kind of a pre-practice since his soccer schedule isn't out yet. It sounds like a lot of the same kids are coming back for the spring session. Since we had the afternoon free, Scot and I decided to see a movie, The King's Speech. There is really not many good movies playing right now to choose from. I thought it was a good movie, although after watching the Oscars tonight, I'm surprised about the Best Director win. Saturday night was the Blue and Gold banquet for scouts, when the kids get their patches for whatever rank they have been working towards. Declan got his Tiger patch and Owen got his Bear patch. The entertainment for the evening was the Reptile Guy, which was fun. He had some cool animals and let the kids touch and hold them all. Owen was excited to get to see blue-tongued skink, since that's the reptile he seems to want. They have two males available at the Longmont reptile shelter, so we would probably adopt one of those. They are very suitable for kids because they don't mind being handled and don't move fast or anything. I think the bearded dragons are cuter, but Owen has never warmed up to them for some reason. The skink that he wants to meet is named Al Pacino: http://www.corhs.org/alpacino.html
